Radiation Secret

The person in the woods was the old man Buckley of the Horn Inn. As Keith Luen's secret agent, he had lived in Ed Town for ten years.In fact, not long after he settled in Edtown, he no longer wanted to work for the Case Chamber of Commerce.

After all, he was getting old, and the relatively stable environment in Ed Town made him plan to retire, so he secretly surrendered to William Hudgens, bluntly saying that he was Keith Luen's undercover agent in Ed Town.

Because of the unsightly cooperation with Keith Roon, William Hudgens also acquiesced in the existence of Barkley, using him as a buffer and information communication between the two parties, and Keith Roon also I realized this for a while, and I also acquiesced.

It’s just that as a participant in the Martinborough gold robbery, Buckley was also interested in the gold in his spare time. Although he knew that even if the gold was given to him, he would not be able to move it away, but his greed was not so So restrained.

As the years passed, the possibility of obtaining gold became less and less. Buckley even studied the whereabouts of gold as a hobby, collecting information related to this batch of gold from various aspects. [

Until Zhou Qingfeng delivered the map to his nose...

Barkley's excitement at the time was uncontrollable. He knew that there was such a map, and he also knew the real purpose of this map.He was by the side when the contract was signed.He witnessed the drawing process of those two maps with his own eyes.

Ten years ago, Keith Luen was chased by the Northwest Alliance's pursuers to the Heavenly Road and the Lower Dimension Gate. When he was on the brink of desperation, it was William Huggins who took the initiative to contact Keith Luen and his gang who were hiding in the Gobi.

To put it bluntly, if you want half of the gold as a reward, you can give Keith Luen and his gang asylum.

The desperate Keith Luen didn't have much choice, so he agreed to William Hudgens' conditions, and finally escaped with luck.

Keith Luen fled to Newburgh after the Northwest Alliance retreated. Before he left, he ordered Buckley to stay and was responsible for collecting information on Ed Town, and then became a liaison between the two sides.

According to the bits of information Barkley collected himself, both William Huggins and Keith Roone were obviously developed by relying on this batch of gold, but he was already marginalized at that time, and many secret news would not let him Know.

When the melee in Ed Town occurred, the original ruling class was severely damaged, and the armed maiden would forcefully enter. Buckley felt intuitively at that time, maybe he could ask the veterans of the guards who had been in contact with gold before, and they might know the whereabouts of gold?

Sure enough, Barkley got what he wanted, and combined with the information he already knew, he also guessed the approximate location of the golden cave.

It's just that it's not easy to really find out that cave. Buckley doesn't have the convenience of an aerial map in Zhou Qingfeng's hands. He can intuitively observe the ground from the air, and it's impossible to directly order veterans who know it to help him. lead the way.

He can only take the most stupid way, which is to walk all over the area with his feet and search slowly with his eyes.

Barkley is very patient, neither arrogant nor impetuous. He has been thinking about gold for ten years. If he thinks about it, he can just look at the batch of gold before he dies. up.

Not long after night fell tonight, Barkley felt a little uneasy. The mountains and forests in the south seemed to be getting quieter and quieter. The forest in the dark night was not completely silent, and there would always be some night creatures that came out to move around.

When he realized something was wrong, he hid in the woods almost subconsciously.

After lying in ambush for a while, Barkley was sure that there were people in the woods opposite, which made him very puzzled. There were very few people in this forest, and the direction of the other party was obviously towards him.

Who is it?

Is it the scavengers?No, this is surrounded by woods.

Why is there no movement again?

Did he find that there was no one around the campfire and wanted to wait for me to show up? [

Holding a small Colt Special Detective revolver in his hand, Buckley decided to find out the people in the woods, otherwise, in the woods at night, there is a guy with obvious malicious intentions guarding the side, unlucky always yourself.

Zhou Qingfeng stayed motionless in the woods. Not long after, Xue Su's voice came from the earphone of the walkie-talkie: "I found his, it's about ten meters away from you."

ten meters?

Zhou Qingfeng was shocked when he heard this!Isn't that right on the opposite side? He couldn't help squatting down, for fear that the other party would shoot indiscriminately.

"Are you going to kill him?" Xue Su asked.

"Hurt!"

Buckley's figure was captured by the night vision device, showing suspicion. Xue Su picked up the Type 85 micro-charger in his hand, aimed at a target 30 meters away from her, and pulled the trigger.

Due to the use of a special 64-type micro-acoustic submachine gun, the sound of the 85-type micro-charge is extremely small. Zhou Qingfeng only heard a slight puffing sound from his left side, and a piercing scream spread through the night sky from the opposite side.

Ah!

Zhou Qingfeng immediately rushed out with his gun in his hand, and within a few steps, he saw a man running away limping, clutching his thigh, holding a gun in one hand at the foot of a slope opposite him. When Qingfeng rushed over, there was the sound of tree branches disturbing, and the man wanted to raise his gun and shoot at Zhou Qingfeng.

Zhou Qingfeng opened fire immediately, and the gun deliberately flew over the man's head, and at the same time shouted: "Stop, if you run again, you will be beaten to death."

But the man didn't stop at all. After firing a few shots indiscriminately, he continued to flee deep into the woods.Zhou Qingfeng took advantage of the opportunity of all his shots and exchanged, and rushed forward.

Buckley was terrified to death, the man in the darkness pursued accurately, and seized the opportunity when he had no power to fight back, so he could only throw the empty revolver in his hand into the darkness, turn around and run.

The swirling revolver hit Zhou Qingfeng's helmet, and with a bang, Zhou Qingfeng's whole body tightened in fright, and he threw himself out like a dog eating shit, and rolled his hands and feet outwards in a hurry.

Half a day later, when there was no response, I realized that it was not a grenade thrown by the other party.

Zhou Qingfeng became anxious, got up and continued to chase.

Barkley's thigh was injured, and he couldn't escape very far in the dark night. The old man hid in a bush and held his breath, trying to get through.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Qingfeng saw his figure clearly outside, rushed to him, kicked him out of the bushes, and shouted: "You can't hide!"

Barkley screamed and rolled several times on the ground. As soon as he got up, he wanted to change the direction and run again. Suddenly, there was a sound of wind twitching his clothes, and his chin was kicked right by the marine boots embedded with thin steel plates. , knocked his upper and lower teeth, and backed away with a mouth full of blood.

Only then did he know that there were at least two enemies in the dark.

But even in such a desperate situation, Buckley still did not give in. He drew a dagger from his ribs, put on a defensive posture, and tried to see the enemy's direction with his eyes open. retreat.

Through the image of the night vision device, Zhou Qingfeng had already seen the person in front of him clearly. It was the innkeeper Barkley who helped him get rid of the blackmail from Xiao En and his gang, and then immediately blackmailed him. [

"If you move back again, I'll break your other leg." Zhou Qingfeng said jokingly, looking at the embarrassed Buckley, like a cat playing with a mouse.

Heh..., Barkley did not retreat, he heard Zhou Qingfeng's voice not far away from him, and rushed forward with all his strength, piercing the sharp knife in his hand.

Zhou Qingfeng was taken aback by this desperate attack, but he just turned his body sideways, turned the m31 upside down, and faced Barkley's head with a few butts of the gun fiercely.

Boom, boom, boom...

After being hit for the first time, Barkley lost his ability to resist, and was about to fall down from dizziness. After a few blows, the old man passed out on the spot.

Zhou Qingfeng spat violently, pointed his gun at the fallen target, and said viciously: "Why do these people in the wasteland like to work so hard?"

"Maybe this is their culture? There is no forgiveness, only killing." Following behind, Xue Su said coldly: "Now I also somewhat understand why Melanie and his family hate this world so much, and why they are trying their best to reform it. this world?

You are their most desperate and most numb hope.

Remember to be nicer to the family in the future. "

Xue Su's last sentence turned into a joke, and Zhou Qingfeng said angrily, "Hey! What do you mean? Do I look like a bad guy?"

Xue Su was lazy to answer his questions, isn't this an obvious fact.

After a simple search by Zhou Qingfeng, the old man Buckley woke up from the pain. He leaned against a tree and groaned, and he realized that there was someone beside him.

Barkley was almost beaten up by Zhou and Xue. He endured the severe pain of the wound on his body and asked in the darkness, "Who are you? Why did you attack me?"

"What are you doing here again?" Zhou Qingfeng opened his mouth, and Buckley recognized him from his accent. People in Edtown always speak with a local accent, and Zhou Qingfeng's force-feeding education and training It just didn't come out.

"Are you that Victor Hugo?"

"You guessed it! So can you answer my question?"

"Hehe, I knew it was you, and I got that map from you? It's so strange. When I first saw you, your legs were trembling because of Xiao En's fright, but now you have Almost in control of Edtown."

"Can we talk about something serious, please? What are you doing here?"

Barkley, on the other hand, thought he was going to die. He ignored Zhou Qingfeng's question at all, and said to himself, "I think the disappearance of Xiao En's group has something to do with you. They should be dead by now, right?"

Zhou Qingfeng had no choice but to ask Xue Su: "Is there any way to make this old man say something useful?"

Xue Su only said two words: "No."

Zhou Qingfeng had no choice but to step on the wound on Buckley's thigh. The old man screamed in pain and passed out again, and then woke up from the pain, "I have always respected the old and loved the young, but you can't provoke me again and again. !"

"Kill me! Stop torturing me like this. I don't know much," Barkley screamed.

"Tell me as much as you know?" Zhou Qingfeng was merciless.

"Gold, I'm looking for gold deposited by William Hudgens."

"did you find it?"

"No, I have searched all over the nearby hills, but there is no clue."

"Really? I don't really believe what you say." Zhou Qingfeng continued to push harder.

"Ah, kill me, I'm just a poor old man, don't torture people like this, kill me!"

"It's no use pretending to be pitiful. I want to know your identity and your origin. I'm very interested in you. The night is long and we all sleep. You can have a long time, so make it clear."

Buckley couldn't stand the punishment, so he groaned and told, from the time he started spying for Kesloon, to the time he settled in Edtown.

Later, Zhou Qingfeng saw that his attitude was not bad, so he gave him a shot of morphine to relieve his pain, and bandaged his wound.

Barkley's wound was not considered serious. Xue Su's 85-type microcharger used a 64-type micro-sound submachine gun. In order to obtain a good low-sound and low-flame effect, the power of this weapon is not very great.

After the bandaging, Barkley was even able to stand up on his own and walk with a limp on one leg to his bivouac.

Except for some food, there was almost nothing of value in the campsite. After Zhou Qingfeng checked, he explained the current situation to Mei Xiang who was guarding the radio station through the wire.

Melanie was relieved to learn that their potential opponent was under control.After there was no pressure, they informed Zhou Qingfeng to keep Barkley in custody, and they would send the guard squad with supplies to search several target areas tomorrow.
